I Made the Most ICONIC Quilt of All Time

[@seweasybysandy]

Watercolor quilts! Who knew it was a thing? Not me!!! But I loved it, absolutely loved it! So much fun!! Enjoy!

[@kathymcguire8287]

That is so cute 😍

[@bettycoffin4206]

Beautiful quilt. When you look at the colors in nature, all the colors look great with each other, no matter what color they are. I think the same is true when sewing scrappy or watercolor quilts. All the colors of fabric look good together.

[@kathyholmes2435]

It’s really cute

[@lynntaylor4248]

This is amazing 🤩 I Love It ❤

[@lorettahenderson8979]

Beautiful ❤

I'm always looking for new quilt patterns and techniques, i don't think I have made the same quilt twice.

[@seweasybysandy]

That's awesome! How do you search for your next pattern?

[@freespirit3891]

​@@seweasybysandy just found you, and starting out. Could you please tell me what you would use this mini quilt for? Thank you.

[@seweasybysandy]

@@freespirit3891 hi, welcome. Well, this one I put it on my wall as decoration. It could also be a mini placemat or a hot pad or a mugrug. But you can actually make this in any size you want, just make more squares or bigger ones and you're good to go!

[@spot11placer]

I'm sorry but I didn't notice what size you cut your little blocks. It's a beautiful project .

[@seweasybysandy]

Hi. It's 2.5 inches 😄

[@colettesorrells9015]

❤❤❤

[@juliesmith2970]

How were the corners done?

[@seweasybysandy]

What do you mind? The binding mitered corners?

[@juliesmith2970]

Thanks. I should have waited for your answer but I made my own square but didn't add anything like the fish. I messed up the corners but it's not bad for my first time

[@seweasybysandy]

@@juliesmith2970 I'm sure it's the cutest thing, the first of many! I hope you had fun 😀

[@juliesmith2970]

@@seweasybysandy thank you!

Years ago, I once bought a new book on watercolor quilting at a book fair. After reading the extremely detailed instructions, I never made one. When I later met a friend of a friend who was an enthusiastic watercolor quilter, I presented her with this book. Turns out she had been searching for the out-of-print book and actually squealed. Twenty years later, I'm going to give it a try after watching your video. The smaller size seems manageable and way less fussy. Thank you 🍄🍄

[@seweasybysandy]

That's so awesome, you've made my day! ☺️

[@paularodery8074]

I liked it very much, but not sure I like it better than just plain scrappy😊

[@Beebee-pm9tk]

I love making black and white quilts with a splash of colour in each block. Very dramatic. Red is my favourite.

[@dcinrb8538]

Have you tried randomly adding a narrow strip of solid black when sewing a spider block? Mine are 12 in squares of diagonally sewn scrap strips that I then cut into four, ( 6 in) squares. If you include the batting and back fabric, the blocks can be done quilt-as-you-go. The occasional black strip piece just gives an extra punch for the eyes on scrappy utility quilts.

[@seweasybysandy]

Love that

[@brunabonvicini]

Carina!

[@ndean1687]

Cool quilt block! I totally LOVE the fishies!!! And, yes, that song is now stuck in my head! Hahaha! 😂

[@normatulloch376]

Very cute.

[@sherryharding5792]

Great idea.....thanks for sharing

[@brontebenoit6181]

Adorable! I’ve been trying to work up the courage to try appliqué, too! 😬😬😬

[@seweasybysandy]

This is your sign to give it a try 😄

[@marlenejones6266]

Outrageous. Fabulous and so full of fun and life. I adore it so much. Please make more for us to follow . Your work is just crazy wonderful.

[@seweasybysandy]

Thank you so much! I've just published a new one, don't know if you've seen it 😁

[@andreamaclachlan980]

Beautiful 😍😍!! This is something that children could do. A great first back to sewing project for my children ❤❤❤ oh...and I will be doing at least one as well....so many themes to choose from....

[@seweasybysandy]

Yes! The potential is unlimited! I'm doing so many more of these!!

[@giovannacasadio9600]

That is so stinking cute 😍 💖, I have to make a baby quilt with a water theme and this is gust the inspiration I needed. Thanks ❤️ 😊

[@seweasybysandy]

Right??? I got it on my wall and I keep staring at it 😁

[@CarolMcHugh-rr2vi]

How would you put together one square large square to another before binding? To make a larger quilt.

[@seweasybysandy]

Hi. Do you mean in quilt as you go? I find the best way is to sew the top right sides together and the.backing sew it by hand so I'll be able to hide the seam. I have a video about that I made in September I think where I explain the ways to sew quilt as.you go squares together without any seams showing.

[@ArtByKarenEHaley]

I have seen a watercolor quilt but never knew wat the style was called. It's a piano quilt kit that someone pieced for a friend of mine. Great job on yours its very sweet and pretty!

[@seweasybysandy]

Thank you 😁

[@glynndafowler7933]

Sandy do you have a template for the cute fish?

[@seweasybysandy]

Hi. Sorry, I don't. I drew them directly onto the fabric

[@ElsieTalavera-b5l]

I love it! The apliqué is beautiful 😊

[@waldaleite8345]

Super cute....❤

[@karonwostenholme6533]

Lovely xx❤️❤️

[@sallythekolcat]

Black is great for a stained glass look. I recently did a simple quilt for a niece, squares of small black and white patterns, arranged checkerboard like, but sashed with bright aqua. It was lovely.

[@seweasybysandy]

Sounds beautiful ❤️

[@sarahbumgarner5553]

Love it🎉

[@dollysadlak5242]

Super cute ❤

[@MaireArchbold]

I've done water color effects to make the front pieces of vests. I didn't know that pattern had a name! I had the pattern meet at the B inner section of each piece. They came out beautiful! I've also been very creative for the back piece. I used black/ grey bias tape to finish them.

[@seweasybysandy]

Sounds beautiful

[@sonyasmithart9085]
